Chorlton-cum-Hardy Census

The census records that have been made available for Chorlton-cum-Hardy are:

N.B. Please remember that all transcripts and indexes are subject to error or mistakes. They are compiled from film copies of handwritten documents that in some cases are very hard to read. So use them as finding aids, and always check with the original documents, even for the 1881 census on CD.

The only census which can be easily searched is that for 1881. All the rest require searching page by page of handwritten information. The effort required is considerably reduced if a surname or street index exists, but it is still not a trivial task. Please bear this in mind before requesting lookups via e-mail lists or newsgroups.

If you want to look at the census then try the following places:

The Local Studies library for this area will normally hold a copy for the local area.

The National Archives in London, holds copies of all the released census for England and Wales.

LDS Family History Centres around the world can order the census for you to research there.
